Nike Air Rift: Future Ready
Born in 1996, the Nike Air Rift was a first of its kind hybrid: part sneaker, part sandal, fully radical. Inspired by Kenyan barefoot runners and their unmatched endurance, the shoe was named after the Great Rift Valley in Kenya, an origin point for movement, speed, and storytelling.
From its split-toe silhouette to its barefoot feel, the Air Rift remains a symbol of freedom. Reimagined in metallic silver, it speaks to a new generation, bold, expressive, and always in motion. Engineered for movement. Designed for more.
